A cancer patient. A schizophrenic. A health ward. Bad news. Shit receptionist. Sexual tension.
Doctor with a moose knuckle. Patient with matted hair.
Late nights. Phone calls. True story.
Sort of…
Chrome Dome and Schizo returns!
••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
A true story, written and performed by Dan Goodwin(National Slam Poet Aotearoa 2021), with cast Sahil Arora(Warrior, DARA), Brit O'Rourke(One Lane Bridge) and Georgie Llewellyn Shead(How To Art, The Wedding).
Directed by Rae Longshaw-Park

After a sell-out season in 2022, the cast of the original production come together again to bring you a story of real love between an unreal couple, living with psychosis but make it sexy (or at least bearable), and trying our hardest not to die alone. Difficult when your partner turns out not to be real.
Chrome Dome and Schizo is a fusion of poetry and memory play. A recollection and preservation of a 4 month long love story...with a ghost. A gay love story! A break up in the most dramatic way possible. And a way to recover. Through psychosis, through heartache, and in the arms of people who stick around in unreal times.
Don’t miss out on this exciting redevelopment season!
